The Clippers eked out a victory over the Grizzles in Memphis tonight, 82-81, in a game that was in turns sloppy, bewildering, and – briefly – thrilling at the very end. It was the occasionally good, the often bad, and the mostly ugly, but in the end the Clippers somehow managed to end up on the right side o[...]

The Clippers begin their last road trip of the season, a four games in five nights screamer, with the Memphis Grizzlies. Like the Philadelphia 76ers in the East, the Grizzlies got off to a rough start on the year, they were 9-14 going into their first matchup with the Clippers, and turned their season around completely[...]

Blake Griffin hedged on the screen and crouched, Kevin Durant swinging into focus. Durant recognized what most would have considered a mismatch, and tried to take Blake Griffin right to the rim. Only Blake quickly moved his feet, the ball poked between Kevin Durant’s legs and Blake threw the pass down to a boltin[...]

Eric Gordon was 5 for 15 from the field when it happened. He couldn’t get a shot to go in from outside, nor when he drove and the fouls had rarely come. The Clippers themselves even looked downright terrible at times in the first half, falling behind by as many as 16 points and on the verge of turning in a stinke[...]

The Clippers play host to the Oklahoma City Thunder, a team whose plan the Clips would love to follow. Draft a couple blue chip prospects (Durant/Westbrook or Griffin/Gordon), fill the team in with talented young role players (Ibaka, Harden, Maynor or Jordan/Aminu/Bledsoe), value highly the chemistry of the team, don[...]

The Clippers did lose their third or fourth option on offense with Kaman (and their last option with Gomes), but the Suns lost not only an efficient scorer but the man that r[...]

The Clippers will face a Suns team that they haven’t seen in their first three meetings, not that any of those teams were exactly the same (pre-Marcin/VC trade, Marcin/VC trade adjustment period, post-Marcin/VC trade), but now the Suns have fallen two games below .500 and are 5.5 games out of a playoff spot. Over[...]

Blake Griffin rebounded the ball, led his own slow transition. The Clippers were recently down as many as 16 points, seeming to have completely imploded, especially after Mo Williams earned himself a double technical. The Clippers couldn’t stop Barea let alone Dirk and the dominating lead that they had created in[...]
